Default If you had two Hurricane 550's

Would you sell one of them to buy an HDX 500 or would you keep both Hurricanes?

I bought two and then got interested in the HDX 500. I'm also developing an intense lust for a Raptor 550. I haven't even opened the box that one of them was shipped in. I have an auction running for it right now and I'm thinking about cancelling the auction and keeping it.

OMG not a raptor LOL, I got into eletric to avoid a raptor ( I do own a 30 size v1 raptor we call it the beater I will let antone try to fly it) I just can't see owning two these are nice birds but there are lots of others in this class and I would like to toy with many of them, like the swift, lepton, hdx, maybee I will act like a fanboy and get a t-rex 500. But since you all ready have 2, try trading it here these are high intrest birds, and are slowly starting to show up at local events.

Isn't the HDX 500 a Lepton clone? I want to end up with three helis. A Hurricane 550, Hurricane 450 when it comes out, an HDX 500 and of course my Belt CP for flying.

LOL keep both, one for parts! I was thinking that when I got my hurricane. That way you get back in a the air in a jiffy! Then order the broken parts, too bad I don't have a LHS that carry parts.

One for 3d, the other for a scale fuse.
Or Like FW says. Nice to have a complete back up heli in case you put it in.

OK, you guys talked me into keeping it. I just ended the auction. I'll have two complete 550's with both plastic and CNC heads and almost enough spare parts to build a third one. Good idea about the scale fuse, never thought of that.
